The requests for an Oceania server region from Emily's blog
Lost Ark(opens in a new window) Players Lost Ark Gold who are from Australia as well as New Zealand are flocking to the game's official forums to request Amazon for region-specific servers, citing latency issues as well as long queues on servers.
The requests for an Oceania server region started in November 2021, a few months prior to the global launch. In a thread titled "Please Reconsider Oceania Servers"(opens in a new tab) user ooglydit wrote "While I'm very thankful for the effort AGS has done in getting the region lock removed for Australia & New Zealand, having a dedicated server dedicated to the region could go leaps and bounds to make the game more enjoyable for all of us." The principal reason for the request was concerns over high speeds when connecting to distant servers. "As currently, if our only options are NA/EU, we're contemplating either -250 ping to NA or -300 ping to EU."
It appears that Ooglydit's concerns were well-founded. As of the time of writing this it, the plea for Oceania servers has been the top message on the Lost Ark forums, with over 3,000 respondents adding to the call for a region-specific server, and that increase is growing.As players are concerned, the high ping caused by connecting to distant servers is impacting the experience. "I know I'm missing out on the joy of my talents because the time between animation and the result puts the brakes on the whole process," writes user Poppleop. Rigeth, on the other hand, points out that high ping puts Oceania players at a disadvantage during PvP. "It's generally accepted for the majority of Australians to stay around Lost Ark Gold for sale as a result, which means when we join PVP and have to compete against anyone with 18ms, or better , we'll generally lose 1v1" Rigeth and his team point out.
